RIO Kahuna LT Strike Indicator
RIO’S KAHUNA LT is an ingenious and subtle strike indicator made of a piece of high floating fly line with the core removed from the middle, leaving an empty tunnel. Simply break off the required length of indicator and thread the leader through the tunnel. Each packet contains a simple wire threader to make this easier. The end result is an incredibly sensitive strike indicator that grips on to a tapered leader and stays in place without any damage to the leader.
Each packet contains 3, 1ft length of Kahuna LT in Chartreuse, Orange and White. Use a waterproof marker to color the white indicator to any color you like.

The Kahuna LT is very sensitive and stays securely on the leader without slipping. I’ve used it in still waters and it responds well to small strikes. The color options are great and I painted one to match my fly pattern.
Michael Piper –
Works well with small dry flies. The threader makes setup easy. I found it more stable than other indicators I’ve tried in light wind conditions.
Eric Campbell –
Highly recommended for subtle presentations. The indicator doesn’t drag or break the leader. I use it regularly in quiet lakes and it’s proven reliable.
